The mission of the Center for Adolescent Substance Abuse Research (CeASAR) at Children's Hospital Boston is to discover new ways to reduce substance abuse and related disorders in children and adolescents.

Dr. John Knight established the Center for Adolescent Substance Abuse Research in 1999. CeASAR's goal is to provide national leadership in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of substance-related disorders as they affect children and adolescents. The center conducts research, teaching and training in the field of adolescent substance abuse, and provides clinical services through the Adolescent Substance Abuse Program (ASAP).

Through its research, CeASAR is developing evidence-based strategies to help pediatricians and other health care providers identify adolescent substance use at its onset and intervene before serious harm results. The research team conducts studies on new methods of screening adolescent patients for substance abuse as well as brief office-based therapeutic interventions. The New England Partnership for Substance Abuse Research (NEPSAR), a network of primary care sites throughout New England, was recently formed to enhance our ability to develop, test, and disseminate these new strategies.

The Adolescent Substance Abuse Program (ASAP) provides science-based, family-oriented and developmentally-appropriate evaluation and treatment for adolescents with substance use problems.

Welcome to public health. We are the nation's first health department and trace our roots back to 1799, when Paul Revere was named Boston's first health officer.

Back then, the board of health was formed to fight a potential outbreak of cholera. Taking innovative strides to save lives, health officials posted signs on lampposts, held meetings and led an early-day public information campaign to reduce deaths due to cholera, a highly preventable disease.

Two hundred years later, that tradition of prevention continues through the Boston Public Health Commission. While we are the country's oldest health department, we pride ourselves on having some of the most innovative services for our residents. Described as "the most activist arm of city government," by the Boston Globe, the Commission has a vigorous commitment to the health of Boston.
